“We would like to thank our legal team at Sintons for their expert advice.”

Christopher Welch, Partner in the Company and Commercial department at Sintons, who has specialism in advising the care sector, said: “This is an excellent strategic move for Creative Support, and further strengthens and enhances its position as one of the key players in its sector.

“Sintons works with businesses and organisations in the care sector throughout the UK, and we have an enviable reputation for our expertise in what is a very specialist area.

“We are very pleased to work with such a rapidly-developing client as Creative Support which has the interests of its service users at its core.”
